Over 80% of the world's energy needs are provided by coal, oil and gas. Although technologies to extract fossil fuels may have changed over the decades, the core products themselves have never been challenged. Until now.
Pressure to reduce carbon emissions is putting the future of fossil fuel giants in jeopardy. Encouraging the growth of alternative methods to generate and distribute power.
In just eight years, the value of the world's biggest power companies has halved. Leaving industry giants scrambling to redefine their role in this new energy world. Across the world, old industries are facing disruption on an unprecedented scale. The pressure to adapt has never been greater.
Known as the Paris Accord, 195 countries agreed to a legally binding climate deal to reduce carbon emissions. This 5 trillion dollar industry may be facing a seismic shift but that doesn't mean it's ready to ditch the dirty fossil fuels that made it rich. Instead, many companies are banking on new methods to clean up an old process. Norwegian oil and gas giant, Statoil, struck it rich in the North Sea in the late 1960s. Over four decades later, at its Sleipner gas rig, the company is attempting to make fossil fuel production cleaner.
Statoil's business still relies on the harmful burning of fossil fuels by its customers but at least the company is trying to reduce its own carbon footprint. It's transformed some of its offshore rigs with technology that enables engineers to separate the carbon dioxide and pump it underground. Statoil's Sleipner gas rig is the world's first offshore carbon capture storage plant.
Each year, Statoil stores 1 million tonnes of CO2 making extraction less carbon intensive. They believe that prioritising gas over more harmful fossil fuels will further reduce global warming and keep them relevant for decades to come.
Wind and solar are cleaner but depend on subsidies. To take on the consistency of fossil fuels they face a huge challenge - The unpredictable weather. In Bavaria, a tiny village has used those subsidies to take up the challenge. This community believes it's found a way to produce a steady energy supply just from renewable sources, raising the real prospect of a future free from fossil fuels. Norbert and Kristina Bechteler's family farm has been providing the local community with dairy products for over 200 years but they now have a new income from solar energy.
Producing your own energy with solar panels isn't revolutionary but in this village, they're combining solar with other renewables in an attempt to achieve the Holy Grail of a steady energy supply. And they're prepared to use anything to do it. The Deputy Mayor has helped drive the village's pioneering efforts to make renewable energy a realistic option.
There's one renewable that never disappears as it can be sourced from the decay of virtually any organic matter and it's called biogas. Of the four biogas plants in the village, Farmer Einsiedler runs the largest. Combining these different sources has been so successful the village now generates five times more energy than it needs. But that is just part of the challenge of turning renewables into a credible energy supply.
The Disrupters is an original series exploring how major industries – from music and cars to hospitality – are currently being disrupted by the latest wave of digital innovation. As well as enjoying privileged access into the world biggest tech start ups we show how industry giants respond when faced with such tech-driven innovation - do they adapt - or die?

Speakers : Richard Dobbs, JonathanWoetzel, Stephanie Flanders
Recorded on 8 June 2015 at Sheikh ZayedTheatre, New AcademicBuilding
Since the start of the new century, the world has started to change - and radically. The collision of four global forces means we are now living in an era of near constant discontinuity. Competitors can burst upon the scene in a blink of an eye. Businesses that were protected by large and deep moats find that their defences are easily breached. Vast new markets are conjured seemingly from nothing. Five years is an eternity.
In a new book, No Ordinary Disruption, the three leaders of the McKinsey Global Institute, McKinsey's business and economics research arm, argue that the world is now roughly in the middle of a dramatic transition as a result of four fundamental disruptive trends: growth and urbanisation in emerging markets, technological disruption, increasing connectivity, and the ageing of populations. None of these disruptions, on its own, is a surprise. The unique challenge is that they are happening at the same time - and on a huge scale, creating second-, third-, and even fourth-order effects that are scarcely possible to anticipate. As they collide, they will produce change so significant that much of the management intuition that has served us in the past will become irrelevant, causing us to reset our collective intuition.
This event marks the publication of No Ordinary Disruption.
Richard Dobbs is a Director of the McKinsey Global Institute (@McKinsey_MGI), McKinsey & Company’s economics and business research arm, and a Director (Senior Partner) of McKinsey, based in London.

He is a co-author of Value, the Four Cornerstones of Corporate Finance, published in November 2010, and his work has appeared in several books, including Valuation: Measuring and Managing the Value of Companies, and Korea2020 – GlobalPerspectives for the next decade. Richard received a B.A. in engineering, economics, and management at Oxford University, where he obtained a first-class degree.
Based in Shanghai, Jonathan Woetzel is a director of the McKinsey Global Institute and leads McKinsey research on China, Asia, and global economic and business trends. As leader of the firm’s CitiesInitiative, he has conducted more than 60 projects for governments throughout China to support local economic development and transformation.

Transcript - One of the things that has begun to worry me is the fact that I'm seeing change happening at a scale which is unimaginable before and that it's impacting industry after industry after industry. Every industry I've looked at I've seen a trend of major disruption happening. Manufacturing is the most obvious. With robotics and 3-D printing, as of this year, it is cheaper to manufacture in the United States than it is in China. It is cheaper to manufacture in Europe than it is in China. Why is that? Because with automated robots that have two arms, that have screens, which show you their emotion, with the sensors they have around them, I'm talking about Baxter from the Rethink Robotics or Universal. These robots have become very sophisticated. The cost of operation is less than the cost of human labor. So we can now have robots working 24/7 doing the things that human beings did. Give it five years and these robots will become ever more sophisticated. They'll be doing many, many more jobs, which means that the manufacturing industry is going to be disrupted in a very big way. The good news for America is that it's coming back here. The good news for Europe is that it's coming back there. The good news for Asia is that it's also going to become a local industry. Bad news for China because it's no longer going to happen in China.
So, by the end of the decade you're going to see major upheaval in manufacturing, opportunities and problems. Move into the next decade, these robots will probably go on strike because we won't need them anymore. We'll have 3-D printers now. Within 15 to 20 years we'll be able to 3-D print electronics. So imagine being able to design your own iPhone and print it at home. That is what becomes technically feasible in the 15 to 20 year timeframe. So you're talking about major disruption happening to manufacturing in the short-term and then even greater disruption happening in the long term. Now look at finance. We're seeing the turmoil that Bitcoin is creating. You now have many parties supporting it. Well, you also have crowdfunding shaking up the venture capital industry that they've become less relevant. We'll soon have crowdfunding for loans that in some countries already they're experimenting with taking out loans by if you want to buy a house, if you want to buy a car you simply get it from a large number of people.
You're now moving into cardless transactions for purchasing goods. We may not need the banks anymore. We may not need financial institutions the way we do right now. So there's going to be disruption happening to financial services whether or not financial services realizes it. In theUSA they seem to be complacent because they've got laws protecting them. But the same laws don't apply in other countries. We may well have major innovations happening abroad which come now to the United States. Look at healthcare. That already we now have Apple putting a stake in the ground saying we're going to be the platform for health. They basically have announced their health platform. What they want is that all of these new sensor devices that are becoming common, which monitors your blood pressure, which monitors your blood oxygenation, which monitors your heart beats, which monitors your temperature, which monitors your activity levels, and soon which will monitor your blood glucose and monitor your internals. They want all of this data being uploaded to the Apple platform. Do you think Google will be left behind? Do you think Microsoft will be left behind? Do you think Samsung will be left behind? Everyone is jumping into the act. But soon when you have all of this data, we'll be able to transform the healthcare industry because we will be able to predict when someone is about to get sick. We will have AI based physicians that can advise us when we're about to get sick, that can advise us on what we need to do to get healthy. [transcript truncated]

Top InnovationKeynote SpeakerJeremy Gutsche's speech on trends, change, creativity and disruptive innovation. In this disruptive innovation keynote speech, Jeremy (http://www.JeremyGutsche.com) walks though how disruptive innovation happens, how to create a culture of innovation & change and the Trend Hunter's top 18 futurist mega trends impacting our world. "Disrupt or be Disrupted" is his latest and best speech on disruptive innovation and creativity and was presented at Trend Hunter's epic FutureFestival Trends Innovation Conference (where it was titled "How to Spark a Revolution")
As a New York Times Bestseller, CEO of Trend Hunter and one of the top innovation keynote speakers, Jeremy has helped 500 brands, billionaires to implement disruptive innovation strategies in order to avoid being disrupted themselves. The Disruptive Innovation Keynote Speech is structured in five parts, based off several of Jeremy's latest keynote speaker topics:
i. INTRO - MOTIVATIONAL SPEECH ON INNOVATION - Ignite your enthusiasm for change with Jeremy's high energy keynote speaker style as he introduces the reason for studying disruptive innovation and trends.
ii. KEYNOTE SPEECH ON CHANGE & DISRUPTION - Learn why disruptive innovation happens, and the need for companies to adapt their business models sooner in Jeremy's thesis. This part of his innovation speech is based on research from his New York Times Bestseller "BETTER and FASTER" which is currently the top innovation keynote video on youtube with 6,000,000 views.
iii. KEYNOTE SPEECH ON PURPOSE - Learn how to create a culture of innovation with a 3-part culture framework from Jeremy's innovation speech on culture. This part is a bit more tactical, but to disrupt, innovate or make change happen, you need a culture of innovation and change.
iv. KEYNOTE SPEECH ON TRENDS & TREND-BASED INNOVATION - Modeled off Trend Hunter's big data from 130,000,000 people, this part of the disruptive innovation keynote speech gets deeper into the futurist mega trends that are shaping our world, and how your business can adapt to leverage trends. Disruptive innovation starts with creative ideas that are linked to the trends that are changing business.
v. KEYNOTE SPEECH ABOUT INNOVATION AND ACTION - Finally, Jeremy wraps up with a couple examples from his strategy keynote about action and how innovation often stems from little ideas that you can make big. People think about disruption as something linked to big Eureka moments, but actually disruptive innovation is more frequently linked to little iterations, change, and adaptation that can be more broadly implemented into a company's business strategy and organizational culture.
"Disrupt or be Disrupted" is a TED Talks style speech on innovation is designed to inspire you, and if you want more, but if you want more, come to Future Festival where you can spend more time exploring the top 18 Disruption Megatrends AND take part in Trend Hunter's innovation workshops to identify disruptive innovation opportunities for your own brand.

Likewise, in the village of Moyah, St. Andrew, the early morning torrential rains caused severe disruption in traffic, particularly as one major bridge was flooded out.

Majors are typically assigned as specialized executive or operations officers for battalion-sized units of 300 to 1,200 soldiers. In some militaries, notably France and Ireland, the rank of major is referred to as commandant, while in others it is known as captain-major. It is also used in some police forces and other paramilitary rank structures, such as the New York State Police, New Jersey State Police and several others. As a police rank, Major roughly corresponds to the UK rank of Superintendent.

When used in hyphenated or combined fashion, the term can also imply seniority at other levels of rank, including general-major or major general, denoting a mid-level general officer, and sergeant major, denoting the most senior NCO of a military unit. The term Major can also be used with a hyphen to denote the leader of a military band such as in pipe-major or drum-major.

History

Gutsche was born in Calgary, Alberta where he was raised to be an entrepreneur. In his book, Better and Faster, he describes an upbringing that involved scouring hundreds of magazines each month with his father, in the search of ideas they would turn into prototypes and inventions. This activity would later lead to the concept behind Trend Hunter, a crowdsourced community that enables people to similarly scour for ideas to find inspiration.

Prior to starting Trend Hunter, Jeremy Gutsche was a management consultant with the Monitor Group and was Capital One's Director of Upmarket in Canada. At Capital One, he led his team to grow a $1 billion business.

Railways in Sydney

Sydney, the largest city in Australia, has an extensive network of passenger and freight railways. The passenger network is a hybrid metro-suburban railway with a central underground core running at metro style frequencies, which branches out into a suburban commuter type network. The system also carries freight, and there is a separate network of freight lines, some of which are disused.

The network has more in common with rapid transit systems than it does with North American and European commuter networks. This is illustrated by the everyday service, 20 hours a day operation, 15 minute or better frequencies on most of the network, large underground sections, a ridership comparable and even larger than most North American rapid transit systems and relatively small distances between stations.

Passenger service

Passenger service is operated in Sydney by Sydney Trains (launched 1 July 2013). Trains operate for 20 hours a day, and over 1 million weekday passenger journeys are made on 2365 daily services over 2080km of track and through 306 stations (including interurban lines). Suburban services operates along the portions of the main lines from Sydney to the north, west, south and south-west, and also along several dedicated suburban lines. All of these lines are electrified at overhead 1500 V DC, starting in 1926.

Oil and gas companies are facing major technological disruption

Pressure to reduce carbon emissions is putting the future of fossil fuel giants in jeopardy. Their survival plans involve carbon storage and floating wind farms. Meanwhile, one small German village is showing how large companies aren't always essential.

Top InnovationKeynote SpeakerJeremy Gutsche's speech on trends, change, creativity and disruptive innovation. In this disruptive innovation keynote speech, Jeremy (http://www.JeremyGutsche.com) walks though how disruptive innovation happens, how to create a culture of innovation & change and the Trend Hunter's top 18 futurist mega trends impacting our world. "Disrupt or be Disrupted" is his latest and best speech on disruptive innovation and creativity and was presented at Trend Hunter's epic FutureFestival Trends Innovation Conference (where it was titled "How to Spark a Revolution")
As a New York Times Bestseller, CEO of Trend Hunter and one of the top innovation keynote speakers, Jeremy has helped 500 brands, billionaires to implement disruptive innovation strategies in order to avoid being disrupted themselves. The Disruptive Innovation Keynote Speech is structured in five parts, based off several of Jeremy's latest keynote speaker topics:
i. INTRO - MOTIVATIONAL SPEECH ON INNOVATION - Ignite your enthusiasm for change with Jeremy's high energy keynote speaker style as he introduces the reason for studying disruptive innovation and trends.
ii. KEYNOTE SPEECH ON CHANGE & DISRUPTION - Learn why disruptive innovation happens, and the need for companies to adapt their business models sooner in Jeremy's thesis. This part of his innovation speech is based on research from his New York Times Bestseller "BETTER and FASTER" which is currently the top innovation keynote video on youtube with 6,000,000 views.
iii. KEYNOTE SPEECH ON PURPOSE - Learn how to create a culture of innovation with a 3-part culture framework from Jeremy's innovation speech on culture. This part is a bit more tactical, but to disrupt, innovate or make change happen, you need a culture of innovation and change.
iv. KEYNOTE SPEECH ON TRENDS & TREND-BASED INNOVATION - Modeled off Trend Hunter's big data from 130,000,000 people, this part of the disruptive innovation keynote speech gets deeper into the futurist mega trends that are shaping our world, and how your business can adapt to leverage trends. Disruptive innovation starts with creative ideas that are linked to the trends that are changing business.
v. KEYNOTE SPEECH ABOUT INNOVATION AND ACTION - Finally, Jeremy wraps up with a couple examples from his strategy keynote about action and how innovation often stems from little ideas that you can make big. People think about disruption as something linked to big Eureka moments, but actually disruptive innovation is more frequently linked to little iterations, change, and adaptation that can be more broadly implemented into a company's business strategy and organizational culture.
"Disrupt or be Disrupted" is a TED Talks style speech on innovation is designed to inspire you, and if you want more, but if you want more, come to Future Festival where you can spend more time exploring the top 18 Disruption Megatrends AND take part in Trend Hunter's innovation workshops to identify disruptive innovation opportunities for your own brand.

STORYLINE:
Airports throughout France were deserted on Wednesday after the nation's air traffic controllers went on strike to protest a plan to overhaul Europe's air traffic control.
Less than 10 percent of flights operated as scheduled in the first 2-1/2 hours of the strike, the Civil Aviation Authority said.
Apart from the full-day walkout in France, brief work stoppages among air traffic controllers were expected in Greece, Portugal, Italy, the Netherlands and Hungary, the authority said.
Air traffic controllers say they are staging the work stoppage to oppose implementation of an EU continent wide "single-sky" plan aimed at reducing congestion and delays for travellers.
Trade unions fear the proposal will lead to privatization of air traffic control, job losses and reduced air safety.

No Ordinary Disruption: the four global forces breaking all the trends

Speakers : Richard Dobbs, JonathanWoetzel, Stephanie Flanders
Recorded on 8 June 2015 at Sheikh ZayedTheatre, New AcademicBuilding
Since the start of the new century, the world has started to change - and radically. The collision of four global forces means we are now living in an era of near constant discontinuity. Competitors can burst upon the scene in a blink of an eye. Businesses that were protected by large and deep moats find that their defences are easily breached. Vast new markets are conjured seemingly from nothing. Five years is an eternity.
In a new book, No Ordinary Disruption, the three leaders of the McKinsey Global Institute, McKinsey's business and economics research arm, argue that the world is now roughly in the middle of a dramatic transition as a result of four ...

Pressure to reduce carbon emissions is putting the future of fossil fuel giants in jeopardy. Their survival plans involve carbon storage and floating wind farms. Meanwhile, one small German village is showing how large companies aren't always essential.
Click here to subscribe to The Economist on YouTube: http://econ.trib.al/rWl91R7
Over 80% of the world's energy needs are provided by coal, oil and gas. Although technologies to extract fossil fuels may have changed over the decades, the core products themselves have never been challenged. Until now.
Pressure to reduce carbon emissions is putting the future of fossil fuel giants in jeopardy. Encouraging the growth of alternative methods to generate and distribute power.
In just eight years, the value of the world's biggest power companies has halved. Leaving industry giants scrambling to redefine their role in this new energy world. Across the world, old industries are facing disruption on an unprecedented scale. The pressure to adapt has never been greater.
Known as the Paris Accord, 195 countries agreed to a legally binding climate deal to reduce carbon emissions. This 5 trillion dollar industry may be facing a seismic shift but that doesn't mean it's ready to ditch the dirty fossil fuels that made it rich. Instead, many companies are banking on new methods to clean up an old process. Norwegian oil and gas giant, Statoil, struck it rich in the North Sea in the late 1960s. Over four decades later, at its Sleipner gas rig, the company is attempting to make fossil fuel production cleaner.
Statoil's business still relies on the harmful burning of fossil fuels by its customers but at least the company is trying to reduce its own carbon footprint. It's transformed some of its offshore rigs with technology that enables engineers to separate the carbon dioxide and pump it underground. Statoil's Sleipner gas rig is the world's first offshore carbon capture storage plant.
Each year, Statoil stores 1 million tonnes of CO2 making extraction less carbon intensive. They believe that prioritising gas over more harmful fossil fuels will further reduce global warming and keep them relevant for decades to come.
Wind and solar are cleaner but depend on subsidies. To take on the consistency of fossil fuels they face a huge challenge - The unpredictable weather. In Bavaria, a tiny village has used those subsidies to take up the challenge. This community believes it's found a way to produce a steady energy supply just from renewable sources, raising the real prospect of a future free from fossil fuels. Norbert and Kristina Bechteler's family farm has been providing the local community with dairy products for over 200 years but they now have a new income from solar energy.
Producing your own energy with solar panels isn't revolutionary but in this village, they're combining solar with other renewables in an attempt to achieve the Holy Grail of a steady energy supply. And they're prepared to use anything to do it. The Deputy Mayor has helped drive the village's pioneering efforts to make renewable energy a realistic option.
There's one renewable that never disappears as it can be sourced from the decay of virtually any organic matter and it's called biogas. Of the four biogas plants in the village, Farmer Einsiedler runs the largest. Combining these different sources has been so successful the village now generates five times more energy than it needs. But that is just part of the challenge of turning renewables into a credible energy supply.
The Disrupters is an original series exploring how major industries – from music and cars to hospitality – are currently being disrupted by the latest wave of digital innovation. As well as enjoying privileged access into the world biggest tech start ups we show how industry giants respond when faced with such tech-driven innovation - do they adapt - or die?

In a new book, No Ordinary Disruption, the three leaders of the McKinsey Global Institute, McKinsey's business and economics research arm, argue that the world is now roughly in the middle of a dramatic transition as a result of four fundamental disruptive trends: growth and urbanisation in emerging markets, technological disruption, increasing connectivity, and the ageing of populations. None of these disruptions, on its own, is a surprise. The unique challenge is that they are happening at the same time - and on a huge scale, creating second-, third-, and even fourth-order effects that are scarcely possible to anticipate. As they collide, they will produce change so significant that much of the management intuition that has served us in the past will become irrelevant, causing us to reset our collective intuition.

Transcript - One of the things that has begun to worry me is the fact that I'm seeing change happening at a scale which is unimaginable before and that it's impacting industry after industry after industry. Every industry I've looked at I've seen a trend of major disruption happening. Manufacturing is the most obvious. With robotics and 3-D printing, as of this year, it is cheaper to manufacture in the United States than it is in China. It is cheaper to manufacture in Europe than it is in China. Why is that? Because with automated robots that have two arms, that have screens, which show you their emotion, with the sensors they have around them, I'm talking about Baxter from the Rethink Robotics or Universal. These robots have become very sophisticated. The cost of operation is less than the cost of human labor. So we can now have robots working 24/7 doing the things that human beings did. Give it five years and these robots will become ever more sophisticated. They'll be doing many, many more jobs, which means that the manufacturing industry is going to be disrupted in a very big way. The good news for America is that it's coming back here. The good news for Europe is that it's coming back there. The good news for Asia is that it's also going to become a local industry. Bad news for China because it's no longer going to happen in China.
So, by the end of the decade you're going to see major upheaval in manufacturing, opportunities and problems. Move into the next decade, these robots will probably go on strike because we won't need them anymore. We'll have 3-D printers now. Within 15 to 20 years we'll be able to 3-D print electronics. So imagine being able to design your own iPhone and print it at home. That is what becomes technically feasible in the 15 to 20 year timeframe. So you're talking about major disruption happening to manufacturing in the short-term and then even greater disruption happening in the long term. Now look at finance. We're seeing the turmoil that Bitcoin is creating. You now have many parties supporting it. Well, you also have crowdfunding shaking up the venture capital industry that they've become less relevant. We'll soon have crowdfunding for loans that in some countries already they're experimenting with taking out loans by if you want to buy a house, if you want to buy a car you simply get it from a large number of people.
You're now moving into cardless transactions for purchasing goods. We may not need the banks anymore. We may not need financial institutions the way we do right now. So there's going to be disruption happening to financial services whether or not financial services realizes it. In theUSA they seem to be complacent because they've got laws protecting them. But the same laws don't apply in other countries. We may well have major innovations happening abroad which come now to the United States. Look at healthcare. That already we now have Apple putting a stake in the ground saying we're going to be the platform for health. They basically have announced their health platform. What they want is that all of these new sensor devices that are becoming common, which monitors your blood pressure, which monitors your blood oxygenation, which monitors your heart beats, which monitors your temperature, which monitors your activity levels, and soon which will monitor your blood glucose and monitor your internals. They want all of this data being uploaded to the Apple platform. Do you think Google will be left behind? Do you think Microsoft will be left behind? Do you think Samsung will be left behind? Everyone is jumping into the act. But soon when you have all of this data, we'll be able to transform the healthcare industry because we will be able to predict when someone is about to get sick. We will have AI based physicians that can advise us when we're about to get sick, that can advise us on what we need to do to get healthy. [transcript truncated]

We Won't Get Through The Elections Without Major Disruptions To The Finanical System John Williams!

Top InnovationKeynote SpeakerJeremy Gutsche's speech on trends, change, creativity and disruptive innovation. In this disruptive innovation keynote speech, Jeremy (http://www.JeremyGutsche.com) walks though how disruptive innovation happens, how to create a culture of innovation & change and the Trend Hunter's top 18 futurist mega trends impacting our world. "Disrupt or be Disrupted" is his latest and best speech on disruptive innovation and creativity and was presented at Trend Hunter's epic FutureFestival Trends Innovation Conference (where it was titled "How to Spark a Revolution")
As a New York Times Bestseller, CEO of Trend Hunter and one of the top innovation keynote speakers, Jeremy has helped 500 brands, billionaires to implement disruptive innovation strategies in order to avoid being disrupted themselves. The Disruptive Innovation Keynote Speech is structured in five parts, based off several of Jeremy's latest keynote speaker topics:
i. INTRO - MOTIVATIONAL SPEECH ON INNOVATION - Ignite your enthusiasm for change with Jeremy's high energy keynote speaker style as he introduces the reason for studying disruptive innovation and trends.
ii. KEYNOTE SPEECH ON CHANGE & DISRUPTION - Learn why disruptive innovation happens, and the need for companies to adapt their business models sooner in Jeremy's thesis. This part of his innovation speech is based on research from his New York Times Bestseller "BETTER and FASTER" which is currently the top innovation keynote video on youtube with 6,000,000 views.
iii. KEYNOTE SPEECH ON PURPOSE - Learn how to create a culture of innovation with a 3-part culture framework from Jeremy's innovation speech on culture. This part is a bit more tactical, but to disrupt, innovate or make change happen, you need a culture of innovation and change.
iv. KEYNOTE SPEECH ON TRENDS & TREND-BASED INNOVATION - Modeled off Trend Hunter's big data from 130,000,000 people, this part of the disruptive innovation keynote speech gets deeper into the futurist mega trends that are shaping our world, and how your business can adapt to leverage trends. Disruptive innovation starts with creative ideas that are linked to the trends that are changing business.
v. KEYNOTE SPEECH ABOUT INNOVATION AND ACTION - Finally, Jeremy wraps up with a couple examples from his strategy keynote about action and how innovation often stems from little ideas that you can make big. People think about disruption as something linked to big Eureka moments, but actually disruptive innovation is more frequently linked to little iterations, change, and adaptation that can be more broadly implemented into a company's business strategy and organizational culture.
"Disrupt or be Disrupted" is a TED Talks style speech on innovation is designed to inspire you, and if you want more, but if you want more, come to Future Festival where you can spend more time exploring the top 18 Disruption Megatrends AND take part in Trend Hunter's innovation workshops to identify disruptive innovation opportunities for your own brand.

11. Various interior shots of passengers waiting in Terminal 2F.
STORYLINE:
Airports throughout France were deserted on Wednesday after the nation's air traffic controllers went on strike to protest a plan to overhaul Europe's air traffic control.
Less than 10 percent of flights operated as scheduled in the first 2-1/2 hours of the strike, the Civil Aviation Authority said.
Apart from the full-day walkout in France, brief work stoppages among air traffic controllers were expected in Greece, Portugal, Italy, the Netherlands and Hungary, the authority said.
Air traffic controllers say they are staging the work stoppage to oppose implementation of an EU continent wide "single-sky" plan aimed at reducing congestion and delays for travellers.
Trade unions fear the proposal will lead to privatization of air traffic control, job losses and reduced air safety.

No Ordinary Disruption: the four global forces breaking all the trends

Speakers : Richard Dobbs, JonathanWoetzel, Stephanie Flanders
Recorded on 8 June 2015 at Sheikh ZayedTheatre, New AcademicBuilding
Since the start of the new century, the world has started to change - and radically. The collision of four global forces means we are now living in an era of near constant discontinuity. Competitors can burst upon the scene in a blink of an eye. Businesses that were protected by large and deep moats find that their defences are easily breached. Vast new markets are conjured seemingly from nothing. Five years is an eternity.
In a new book, No Ordinary Disruption, the three leaders of the McKinsey Global Institute, McKinsey's business and economics research arm, argue that the world is now roughly in the middle of a dramatic transition as a result of four ...

Programming Languages and Technical Disruption

[This is a reprise of a keynote talk I gave at PLDI 2016] What do cheating on fuel economy, the London Whale, and building a better mosquito trap have in common? We are constantly bombarded with technical innovations that disrupt business models, social structures, labor markets, etc. Widely visible technical advances such as Internet of Things, Big Data, and Deep Learning are driving markets and creating a huge demand for computer science education. What role, if any, does programming language research have in an age of technical disruptions? In my talk, I argue that historically, as well as today, programming languages are central to major technical disruptions and that language innovation is often driven by technical innovation in other areas.

John Williams: We Won't Get Through The Elections Without Major Disruptions To The Finanic

AMP's Amplify innovation program brings the best mind in the world together to talk about global trends set to disrupt your business.
Exponentially evolving technologies such as solar, electric vehicles, and autonomous (self-driving) cars are set to disrupt and revolutionise the energy and transportation industries as we know them.
With the industrial age of energy and transportation predicted to be over by 2030 (maybe before), how will the clean energy revolution impact our world’s major industries?
JoinSilicon Valley entrepreneur, author and world leader on clean energy, Tony Seba as he discusses how clean energy disruption will flip the current architecture of energy, and what this means for major global industries such as transportation, infrastructure, finance, and manufacturing....

Tony Seba's Clean Disruption Keynote presentation at the Swedbank NordicEnergySummit in Oslo, Norway, March 17th, 2016.
The keynote, based on the book 'Clean Disruption of Energy and Transportation' assert that four technology categories will disrupt energy and transportation by:
1- Batteries / Energy Storage
2- Electric Vehicles
3- Self-Driving Vehicles
4- Solar Energy
The outcome of the Clean Disruption is that by 2030
• All new vehicles will be electric.
• All new vehicles will be autonomous (self-driving).
• Oil will be obsolete
• Coal, natural gas and nuclear will be obsolete
• 80+ per cent of parking spaces will be obsolete.
• Individual car ownership will be obsolete.
• All new energy will be provided by solar (and wind)
Clean Disruption is a technology disruption. Just like d...

No Ordinary Disruption: the four global forces breaking all the trends

Speakers : Richard Dobbs, JonathanWoetzel, Stephanie Flanders
Recorded on 8 June 2015 at Sheikh ZayedTheatre, New AcademicBuilding
Since the start of the new century, the world has started to change - and radically. The collision of four global forces means we are now living in an era of near constant discontinuity. Competitors can burst upon the scene in a blink of an eye. Businesses that were protected by large and deep moats find that their defences are easily breached. Vast new markets are conjured seemingly from nothing. Five years is an eternity.
In a new book, No Ordinary Disruption, the three leaders of the McKinsey Global Institute, McKinsey's business and economics research arm, argue that the world is now roughly in the middle of a dramatic transition as a result of four fundamental disruptive trends: growth and urbanisation in emerging markets, technological disruption, increasing connectivity, and the ageing of populations. None of these disruptions, on its own, is a surprise. The unique challenge is that they are happening at the same time - and on a huge scale, creating second-, third-, and even fourth-order effects that are scarcely possible to anticipate. As they collide, they will produce change so significant that much of the management intuition that has served us in the past will become irrelevant, causing us to reset our collective intuition.
This event marks the publication of No Ordinary Disruption.
Richard Dobbs is a Director of the McKinsey Global Institute (@McKinsey_MGI), McKinsey & Company’s economics and business research arm, and a Director (Senior Partner) of McKinsey, based in London.

Top InnovationKeynote SpeakerJeremy Gutsche's speech on trends, change, creativity and disruptive innovation. In this disruptive innovation keynote speech, Jeremy (http://www.JeremyGutsche.com) walks though how disruptive innovation happens, how to create a culture of innovation & change and the Trend Hunter's top 18 futurist mega trends impacting our world. "Disrupt or be Disrupted" is his latest and best speech on disruptive innovation and creativity and was presented at Trend Hunter's epic FutureFestival Trends Innovation Conference (where it was titled "How to Spark a Revolution")
As a New York Times Bestseller, CEO of Trend Hunter and one of the top innovation keynote speakers, Jeremy has helped 500 brands, billionaires to implement disruptive innovation strategies in order to avoid being disrupted themselves. The Disruptive Innovation Keynote Speech is structured in five parts, based off several of Jeremy's latest keynote speaker topics:
i. INTRO - MOTIVATIONAL SPEECH ON INNOVATION - Ignite your enthusiasm for change with Jeremy's high energy keynote speaker style as he introduces the reason for studying disruptive innovation and trends.
ii. KEYNOTE SPEECH ON CHANGE & DISRUPTION - Learn why disruptive innovation happens, and the need for companies to adapt their business models sooner in Jeremy's thesis. This part of his innovation speech is based on research from his New York Times Bestseller "BETTER and FASTER" which is currently the top innovation keynote video on youtube with 6,000,000 views.
iii. KEYNOTE SPEECH ON PURPOSE - Learn how to create a culture of innovation with a 3-part culture framework from Jeremy's innovation speech on culture. This part is a bit more tactical, but to disrupt, innovate or make change happen, you need a culture of innovation and change.
iv. KEYNOTE SPEECH ON TRENDS & TREND-BASED INNOVATION - Modeled off Trend Hunter's big data from 130,000,000 people, this part of the disruptive innovation keynote speech gets deeper into the futurist mega trends that are shaping our world, and how your business can adapt to leverage trends. Disruptive innovation starts with creative ideas that are linked to the trends that are changing business.
v. KEYNOTE SPEECH ABOUT INNOVATION AND ACTION - Finally, Jeremy wraps up with a couple examples from his strategy keynote about action and how innovation often stems from little ideas that you can make big. People think about disruption as something linked to big Eureka moments, but actually disruptive innovation is more frequently linked to little iterations, change, and adaptation that can be more broadly implemented into a company's business strategy and organizational culture.
"Disrupt or be Disrupted" is a TED Talks style speech on innovation is designed to inspire you, and if you want more, but if you want more, come to Future Festival where you can spend more time exploring the top 18 Disruption Megatrends AND take part in Trend Hunter's innovation workshops to identify disruptive innovation opportunities for your own brand.

[This is a reprise of a keynote talk I gave at PLDI 2016] What do cheating on fuel economy, the London Whale, and building a better mosquito trap have in common? We are constantly bombarded with technical innovations that disrupt business models, social structures, labor markets, etc. Widely visible technical advances such as Internet of Things, Big Data, and Deep Learning are driving markets and creating a huge demand for computer science education. What role, if any, does programming language research have in an age of technical disruptions? In my talk, I argue that historically, as well as today, programming languages are central to major technical disruptions and that language innovation is often driven by technical innovation in other areas. To have the most impact, language researchers have a great opportunity to look beyond problems in their own research area to embrace and understand the impact that their ideas can have on critical societal problems. Increasingly, people are assuming that software will be an essential part of solutions to societal problems. At the same time we know that building an infrastructure on software creates new challenges that threaten to reduce or eliminate the benefits altogether. To make the discussion concrete, I consider three problem domains: global health, financial market stability, and cybersecurity. In each case, I argue that programming language research can and should have a lot of impact. My challenge to the audience is to embrace these problems enthusiastically and bring the great depth of insight and innovation that the field has already created to the broadest audience possible. Since I will be discussing topics that I have far too limited knowledge of, consider this a great opportunity to hear me say outrageous things that are almost certainly not true but at the same time hopefully provocative and entertaining.

Oil and gas companies are facing major technological disruption

Pressure to reduce carbon emissions is putting the future of fossil fuel giants in jeopardy. Their survival plans involve carbon storage and floating wind farms. Meanwhile, one small German village is showing how large companies aren't always essential.
Click here to subscribe to The Economist on YouTube: http://econ.trib.al/rWl91R7
Over 80% of the world's energy needs are provided by coal, oil and gas. Although technologies to extract fossil fuels may have changed over the decades, the core products themselves have never been challenged. Until now.
Pressure to reduce carbon emissions is putting the future of fossil fuel giants in jeopardy. Encouraging the growth of alternative methods to generate and distribute power.
In just eight years, the value of the world's biggest power companies has halved. Leaving industry giants scrambling to redefine their role in this new energy world. Across the world, old industries are facing disruption on an unprecedented scale. The pressure to adapt has never been greater.
Known as the Paris Accord, 195 countries agreed to a legally binding climate deal to reduce carbon emissions. This 5 trillion dollar industry may be facing a seismic shift but that doesn't mean it's ready to ditch the dirty fossil fuels that made it rich. Instead, many companies are banking on new methods to clean up an old process. Norwegian oil and gas giant, Statoil, struck it rich in the North Sea in the late 1960s. Over four decades later, at its Sleipner gas rig, the company is attempting to make fossil fuel production cleaner.
Statoil's business still relies on the harmful burning of fossil fuels by its customers but at least the company is trying to reduce its own carbon footprint. It's transformed some of its offshore rigs with technology that enables engineers to separate the carbon dioxide and pump it underground. Statoil's Sleipner gas rig is the world's first offshore carbon capture storage plant.
Each year, Statoil stores 1 million tonnes of CO2 making extraction less carbon intensive. They believe that prioritising gas over more harmful fossil fuels will further reduce global warming and keep them relevant for decades to come.
Wind and solar are cleaner but depend on subsidies. To take on the consistency of fossil fuels they face a huge challenge - The unpredictable weather. In Bavaria, a tiny village has used those subsidies to take up the challenge. This community believes it's found a way to produce a steady energy supply just from renewable sources, raising the real prospect of a future free from fossil fuels. Norbert and Kristina Bechteler's family farm has been providing the local community with dairy products for over 200 years but they now have a new income from solar energy.
Producing your own energy with solar panels isn't revolutionary but in this village, they're combining solar with other renewables in an attempt to achieve the Holy Grail of a steady energy supply. And they're prepared to use anything to do it. The Deputy Mayor has helped drive the village's pioneering efforts to make renewable energy a realistic option.
There's one renewable that never disappears as it can be sourced from the decay of virtually any organic matter and it's called biogas. Of the four biogas plants in the village, Farmer Einsiedler runs the largest. Combining these different sources has been so successful the village now generates five times more energy than it needs. But that is just part of the challenge of turning renewables into a credible energy supply.
The Disrupters is an original series exploring how major industries – from music and cars to hospitality – are currently being disrupted by the latest wave of digital innovation. As well as enjoying privileged access into the world biggest tech start ups we show how industry giants respond when faced with such tech-driven innovation - do they adapt - or die?

Transcript - One of the things that has begun to worry me is the fact that I'm seeing change happening at a scale which is unimaginable before and that it's impacting industry after industry after industry. Every industry I've looked at I've seen a trend of major disruption happening. Manufacturing is the most obvious. With robotics and 3-D printing, as of this year, it is cheaper to manufacture in the United States than it is in China. It is cheaper to manufacture in Europe than it is in China. Why is that? Because with automated robots that have two arms, that have screens, which show you their emotion, with the sensors they have around them, I'm talking about Baxter from the Rethink Robotics or Universal. These robots have become very sophisticated. The cost of operation is less than the cost of human labor. So we can now have robots working 24/7 doing the things that human beings did. Give it five years and these robots will become ever more sophisticated. They'll be doing many, many more jobs, which means that the manufacturing industry is going to be disrupted in a very big way. The good news for America is that it's coming back here. The good news for Europe is that it's coming back there. The good news for Asia is that it's also going to become a local industry. Bad news for China because it's no longer going to happen in China.
So, by the end of the decade you're going to see major upheaval in manufacturing, opportunities and problems. Move into the next decade, these robots will probably go on strike because we won't need them anymore. We'll have 3-D printers now. Within 15 to 20 years we'll be able to 3-D print electronics. So imagine being able to design your own iPhone and print it at home. That is what becomes technically feasible in the 15 to 20 year timeframe. So you're talking about major disruption happening to manufacturing in the short-term and then even greater disruption happening in the long term. Now look at finance. We're seeing the turmoil that Bitcoin is creating. You now have many parties supporting it. Well, you also have crowdfunding shaking up the venture capital industry that they've become less relevant. We'll soon have crowdfunding for loans that in some countries already they're experimenting with taking out loans by if you want to buy a house, if you want to buy a car you simply get it from a large number of people.
You're now moving into cardless transactions for purchasing goods. We may not need the banks anymore. We may not need financial institutions the way we do right now. So there's going to be disruption happening to financial services whether or not financial services realizes it. In theUSA they seem to be complacent because they've got laws protecting them. But the same laws don't apply in other countries. We may well have major innovations happening abroad which come now to the United States. Look at healthcare. That already we now have Apple putting a stake in the ground saying we're going to be the platform for health. They basically have announced their health platform. What they want is that all of these new sensor devices that are becoming common, which monitors your blood pressure, which monitors your blood oxygenation, which monitors your heart beats, which monitors your temperature, which monitors your activity levels, and soon which will monitor your blood glucose and monitor your internals. They want all of this data being uploaded to the Apple platform. Do you think Google will be left behind? Do you think Microsoft will be left behind? Do you think Samsung will be left behind? Everyone is jumping into the act. But soon when you have all of this data, we'll be able to transform the healthcare industry because we will be able to predict when someone is about to get sick. We will have AI based physicians that can advise us when we're about to get sick, that can advise us on what we need to do to get healthy. [transcript truncated]

Top InnovationKeynote SpeakerJeremy Gutsche's speech on trends, change, creativity and disruptive innovation. In this disruptive innovation keynote speech, Jeremy (http://www.JeremyGutsche.com) walks though how disruptive innovation happens, how to create a culture of innovation & change and the Trend Hunter's top 18 futurist mega trends impacting our world. "Disrupt or be Disrupted" is his latest and best speech on disruptive innovation and creativity and was presented at Trend Hunter's epic FutureFestival Trends Innovation Conference (where it was titled "How to Spark a Revolution")
As a New York Times Bestseller, CEO of Trend Hunter and one of the top innovation keynote speakers, Jeremy has helped 500 brands, billionaires to implement disruptive innovation strategies in order to avoid being disrupted themselves. The Disruptive Innovation Keynote Speech is structured in five parts, based off several of Jeremy's latest keynote speaker topics:
i. INTRO - MOTIVATIONAL SPEECH ON INNOVATION - Ignite your enthusiasm for change with Jeremy's high energy keynote speaker style as he introduces the reason for studying disruptive innovation and trends.
ii. KEYNOTE SPEECH ON CHANGE & DISRUPTION - Learn why disruptive innovation happens, and the need for companies to adapt their business models sooner in Jeremy's thesis. This part of his innovation speech is based on research from his New York Times Bestseller "BETTER and FASTER" which is currently the top innovation keynote video on youtube with 6,000,000 views.
iii. KEYNOTE SPEECH ON PURPOSE - Learn how to create a culture of innovation with a 3-part culture framework from Jeremy's innovation speech on culture. This part is a bit more tactical, but to disrupt, innovate or make change happen, you need a culture of innovation and change.
iv. KEYNOTE SPEECH ON TRENDS & TREND-BASED INNOVATION - Modeled off Trend Hunter's big data from 130,000,000 people, this part of the disruptive innovation keynote speech gets deeper into the futurist mega trends that are shaping our world, and how your business can adapt to leverage trends. Disruptive innovation starts with creative ideas that are linked to the trends that are changing business.
v. KEYNOTE SPEECH ABOUT INNOVATION AND ACTION - Finally, Jeremy wraps up with a couple examples from his strategy keynote about action and how innovation often stems from little ideas that you can make big. People think about disruption as something linked to big Eureka moments, but actually disruptive innovation is more frequently linked to little iterations, change, and adaptation that can be more broadly implemented into a company's business strategy and organizational culture.
"Disrupt or be Disrupted" is a TED Talks style speech on innovation is designed to inspire you, and if you want more, but if you want more, come to Future Festival where you can spend more time exploring the top 18 Disruption Megatrends AND take part in Trend Hunter's innovation workshops to identify disruptive innovation opportunities for your own brand.

STORYLINE:
Airports throughout France were deserted on Wednesday after the nation's air traffic controllers went on strike to protest a plan to overhaul Europe's air traffic control.
Less than 10 percent of flights operated as scheduled in the first 2-1/2 hours of the strike, the Civil Aviation Authority said.
Apart from the full-day walkout in France, brief work stoppages among air traffic controllers were expected in Greece, Portugal, Italy, the Netherlands and Hungary, the authority said.
Air traffic controllers say they are staging the work stoppage to oppose implementation of an EU continent wide "single-sky" plan aimed at reducing congestion and delays for travellers.
Trade unions fear the proposal will lead to privatization of air traffic control, job losses and reduced air safety.

No Ordinary Disruption: the four global forces breaking all the trends

No Ordinary Disruption: the four global forces breaking all the trends

Speakers : Richard Dobbs, JonathanWoetzel, Stephanie Flanders
Recorded on 8 June 2015 at Sheikh ZayedTheatre, New AcademicBuilding
Since the start of the new century, the world has started to change - and radically. The collision of four global forces means we are now living in an era of near constant discontinuity. Competitors can burst upon the scene in a blink of an eye. Businesses that were protected by large and deep moats find that their defences are easily breached. Vast new markets are conjured seemingly from nothing. Five years is an eternity.
In a new book, No Ordinary Disruption, the three leaders of the McKinsey Global Institute, McKinsey's business and economics research arm, argue that the world is now roughly in the middle of a dramatic transition as a result of four fundamental disruptive trends: growth and urbanisation in emerging markets, technological disruption, increasing connectivity, and the ageing of populations. None of these disruptions, on its own, is a surprise. The unique challenge is that they are happening at the same time - and on a huge scale, creating second-, third-, and even fourth-order effects that are scarcely possible to anticipate. As they collide, they will produce change so significant that much of the management intuition that has served us in the past will become irrelevant, causing us to reset our collective intuition.
This event marks the publication of No Ordinary Disruption.
Richard Dobbs is a Director of the McKinsey Global Institute (@McKinsey_MGI), McKinsey & Company’s economics and business research arm, and a Director (Senior Partner) of McKinsey, based in London. He joined the firm in 1988, and more recently from 2004 to 2009 co-led its Corporate FinancePractice. From 2009, Richard has co-led the McKinsey Global Institute, first from South Korea and then from London. He is a co-author of Value, the Four Cornerstones of Corporate Finance, published in November 2010, and his work has appeared in several books, including Valuation: Measuring and Managing the Value of Companies, and Korea2020 – GlobalPerspectives for the next decade. Richard received a B.A. in engineering, economics, and management at Oxford University, where he obtained a first-class degree.
Based in Shanghai, Jonathan Woetzel is a director of the McKinsey Global Institute and leads McKinsey research on China, Asia, and global economic and business trends. As leader of the firm’s CitiesInitiative, he has conducted more than 60 projects for governments throughout China to support local economic development and transformation. He also supports the transformation of Chinese companies into global leaders.
Stephanie Flanders (@MyStephanomics​) is Managing Director and ChiefMarket Strategist for the UK and Europe, J.P. MorganAsset Management. Stephanie was previously the Economics Editor at the BBC. Prior to this, she worked as a reporter at the New York Times, a speechwriter and senior adviser to US Treasury Secretaries Robert Rubin and Lawrence Summers, a Financial Times leader-writer and columnist, and an economist at the Institute for Fiscal Studies and the London Business School.

Programming Languages and Technical Disruption

[This is a reprise of a keynote talk I gave at PLDI 2016] What do cheating on fuel economy, the London Whale, and building a better mosquito trap have in common? We are constantly bombarded with technical innovations that disrupt business models, social structures, labor markets, etc. Widely visible technical advances such as Internet of Things, Big Data, and Deep Learning are driving markets and creating a huge demand for computer science education. What role, if any, does programming language research have in an age of technical disruptions? In my talk, I argue that historically, as well as today, programming languages are central to major technical disruptions and that language innovation is often driven by technical innovation in other areas. To have the most impact, language researchers have a great opportunity to look beyond problems in their own research area to embrace and understand the impact that their ideas can have on critical societal problems. Increasingly, people are assuming that software will be an essential part of solutions to societal problems. At the same time we know that building an infrastructure on software creates new challenges that threaten to reduce or eliminate the benefits altogether. To make the discussion concrete, I consider three problem domains: global health, financial market stability, and cybersecurity. In each case, I argue that programming language research can and should have a lot of impact. My challenge to the audience is to embrace these problems enthusiastically and bring the great depth of insight and innovation that the field has already created to the broadest audience possible. Since I will be discussing topics that I have far too limited knowledge of, consider this a great opportunity to hear me say outrageous things that are almost certainly not true but at the same time hopefully provocative and entertaining.
